About the book
Kimberly Freeman was worried to death when her fiance, who had gone out to Sierra Leone in West Africa, seemed to have disappeared without trace, and she decided the best thing to do was to follow him out there and see if she could discover what had happened to him. In Sierra Leone, however, she met another man, of a very different kind - the domineering Dave Nelson, who had a low opinion of Kim, her fiance, and indeed the whole situation between the two of them. And he added. 'Don't run away with the notion that being female gives you any special immunity where I'm concerned.' Kim would rather have ignored Dave altogether - but how could she?
